Setting a Secure Connection with Oracle Server Database (Optional)

Enabling encrypted connection to the Oracle server increases the security of data transmitted across networks between the ActivID CMS Server and the Oracle Server instance.

Note: By default, the connection with the Oracle database is not secure.

Oracle supports:

  • two types of encryption: SSL Encryption and Advanced Security Option (ASO) network encryption.

  • a message integrity protocol.

Important: Do not activate Both Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption and ASO native encryption (or checksum) at the same time. Activate only one of the 3 configurations described in this documentation, that is, SSL Encryption, ASO Native Encryption, or Data Integrity.
